Wanted Dead or Alive Mohammed Emwazi alias Jihadi John |
But his real name, according to friends and others familiar with his case, is Mohammed Emwazi, a Briton from a well-to-do family who grew up in West London and graduated from college with a degree in computer programming.
He is believed to have traveled to Syria around 2012 and to have later joined the Islamic State, the group whose barbarity he has come to symbolize.
The families of hostages killed by ISIL have been reacting to the naming of a British militant who fronted some of the beheading videos.
Will Mohammed Emwazi be killed, captured by the people chasing him or has his discovery become a liability for ISIS who will execute him themselves - or is this all a hoax - lets not hope so.
Some are calling for Mohammed Emwazi, known as Jihadi John, to be caught alive to face justice.
The Kuwaiti-born man first appeared in a video in 2013 showing the murder of US journalist James Foley.
The victim’s mother, Diane Foley, told reporters: “He (Emwazi) did have the benefits of a comfortable upbringing and yet he’s using gifts and talents for such hatred and brutality.”
